The popstar tweeted that there were shots going off in Selfridges on 24 November 2017 – however police later established, and made very clear, that the panic on Oxford Street and subsequent terrorist attack rumour was sparked by an alleged fight between two men in a tube station that spilled out onto the street.

However, in a recent interview Olly has now insisted that shots were fired – claiming there could have even been a cover-up.

The 33-year-old said it was a ‘murky situation’ and claimed that a girl he met said she had seen a man with a gun with her own eyes.

Now Piers Morgan has clapped back at the Voice star, after originally rubbishing the Troublemaker singer’s original claims last year.

The Voice mentor Olly told The Sun this week he believes it may have been a cover up as he insisted there were gunshots.

He said: ‘I ran into an office after being told by the staff of Selfridges that someone was there with a gun.

‘Whether they were shooting into the air, or whatever, something happened that day — whether it was covered up, I don’t know.’
